No, seriously... what kurds?!
Ignoring the silly science class at the beginning, the movie had a pretty decent beginning and was setting up nicely for the type of movie it tried to be. But not shortly after that, everything goes south pretty quickly.

Not sure what Shyamalan did to the actors, though. Both of the main actors can act pretty good when they have to play a normal person, or being in slight distress (but barring any deep dramaturgy). In this movie, they and the others feel like they had to act at gunpoint.

The conclusion was unsatisfying, too. Especially the ending. I guess when something affects half a continent, the rest of the world still won't care.

2/5 for effort, Zooey and silly deaths that rival Final Destination 2.
